Question
State whether the following equation has a solution or not?
3 sin θ = 5
Advertisements
Solution
3 sin θ = 5
Dividing both sides by 3: `sintheta = 5/3`
The value of sinθ always lies between −1 and +1 for real angles.
But here, sinθ = `5/3` ≈ 1.666, which is greater than 1.
Since sinθ cannot be greater than 1
